PHILADELPHIA- Temple's first year head women's basketball coach Tonya Cardoza has announced that Tiffany Davis (Hampton, Va./Hampton) and Victoria Macauley (Staten Island, N.Y./Curtis) have signed National Letters of Intent as members of the class of 2013.
"I'm really excited to welcome Tiffany and Victoria to the Temple family," commented Cardoza. "Both are athletic and talented players that can score and defend well and I expect them to make an immediate impact on our team."
A 5-5 point guard, Davis averaged 16.4 ppg last season and helped Hampton High School to a runner-up finish in the Peninsula District. She was named the Peninsula District's Girls Basketball Co-Player of the Year and garnered First Team All-Virginian Pilot honors last season. The Crabbers' leading scorer for the last three seasons, Davis had 18.3 ppg, 4.5 apg, 6 rpg and 4 spg as a sophomore to guide Hampton to a Group AAA Virginia State title. She was voted First Team All-State that season as well. Davis hails from the same area that produced former Temple point guard Cynthia Jordan ('05) and current assistant coach Waynetta Veney.
Macauley, a 6-4 center, averaged 17.1 ppg and 10.6 rpg in leading Curtis to a PSAL A League Championship. The 22-8 Warriors lost in the New York State Federation Class A Tournament semifinals to perennial powerhouse Christ the King. Macauley led Staten Island in scoring and field goals made (180) and was second in rebounding. A First Team All-Staten Island pick by the New York Daily News, Macauley also plays for the AAU team NYC Gauchos.
